Dog
and Cat Grooming
As
a rule full groom star to finish takes about 1 hours,
depending on the type and length of coat and size of
your pet. Hand stripping however may take anything up
to 5 hours. Our aim is to keep owners and pets happy
so we can follow any special requirement. Whilst in
for grooming your pet can be de-fleaed.
Most
breeds should come into the grooming parlour every 8
weeks or so but Poodles, Long Coated Dogs & Cats
should be every 4 – 6 weeks in order to stop their
coats from becoming too knotty and nicely trimmed. We
are happy for you to bring your pet in between clips
just for brush out and a bath to prevent matting under
their armpits and legs. Especially if he/she will not
you groom them and you want their feathering left longer.
Puppies
and Kittens
They
should be brought into the grooming parlour as soon
as possible so they can become accustomed to Bathed,
Dried and Groomed. To give your Puppy & Kitten a
good start in life they should have their first groom
between the age of 3 and 5 months.
Winter
Cuts
For
some reason people think their pets do not need grooming
during the winter months as they will be too cold! This
is a misconception, if you think about it if your pet
becomes knotted and matted they will retain water making
your pet ever colder and staying wetter for much longer.
So keeping your pet well groomed through out the winter
will not only keep them feeling and looking great but
you will not have that wet “doggy” smell
or heavy muddy paws and coats!
We
have a range of winter cuts to suit both you and your
pet!
